The Mac version of DFS Explorer is written in Real Basic 2006. 

This program cross compiles the same source code into Mac, Windows or a
Linux executable.

Although I have had no reason to try it before, I have just created a Linux
executable of the code and it seems to work just like the Mac version.

It hasn't been thoroughly tested yet but it appears to work, even the drag
and drop features seem OK.

If anyone wants to try it out, you can download it from :
